2 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the Next-Generation Mazda3 Axela is 50 liters, as officially announced. Owners who have purchased the Next-Generation Mazda3 Axela can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The Next-Generation Mazda3 Axela uses 92-octane gasoline, with a fuel consumption of 5.2 to 5.8L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can provide a driving range of 862 to 962 kilometers. During daily driving, it is important to always monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it is recommended to refuel when there are only 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel mid-journey. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel added may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level. There is additional space from the safe fill level to the tank opening, which is designed to allow for fuel expansion due to temperature increases without causing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity.
I've been driving the next-generation Mazda 3 Axela for a while now, and its 50-liter fuel tank capacity is quite suitable for daily commuting. When driving in the city, the fuel consumption is usually around 7-8L/100km, so a full tank can easily cover 600-700km, saving me the hassle of frequent gas station visits. I typically fill up on weekends because the Monday morning rush hour queues are too long. Driving habits also play a crucial role; avoiding sudden braking or aggressive acceleration helps maintain stable fuel consumption. Running on low fuel for extended periods might damage the fuel pump, so I always keep the tank at least a quarter full. During every maintenance check, I make sure to inspect the fuel tank and pipes to prevent leaks or dirt buildup, ensuring a worry-free drive. Before long trips, I always carry some fuel additives, just in case of emergency situations.
